The family context of ASHA and Anganwadi work in rural Rajasthan: Gender and labour in CHW programmes.

Across the literature on CHWs globally, the role of CHWs' families remains largely unexplored. This article focuses on ASHAs and Anganwadi Workers in a town in rural Rajasthan, India. We interviewed all twenty ASHAs and Anganwadi Workers in this town, and ten of their families; we also conducted participant observation in Anganwadi Centers, health centres, and family settings.

Random amplified polymorphic DNA-based molecular heterogeneity analysis of isolates from foods of animal origin.

Aim: This study aims to study the significance of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) typing in heterogeneity analysis of serovars, isolated from foods of animal origin.

Materials And Methods: serovars isolated and identified from different foods of animal origin such as meat, milk, and egg by standard bacteriological methods. DNA isolated from all 10 isolates which are confirmed by biochemical and serotyping methods and then RAPD was performed using the primers OPB 10, primer 1290, NSC I, NSC II, and primer 3.
